The former Smith Foundry lots in North Baltimore and former Bloomdale Lumber Co. lots are on the list.

Salaries added to databaseThe Buckeye Institute for Public Policy Solutions has included salaries of employees of the Ohio Turnpike Commission to its database of state salaries.

The database includes a pension calculator that estimates each worker’s yearly pension based on a 30-year career.

According to the data, total gross wages for employees grew more than 41 percent 2004 to 2009.

The commission added 191 new employees during that time – an increase of about 20 percent. The number of employees receiving more than $100,000 in pay increased from four to 12.
